Nikki's Tattoo Studio I have 3 decades of experience. Of course with tattoos, but I also offer microneedling for facial rejuvenation & stretch mark & scar repair. Scar cover too.

I offer areola w/ 3d nipple & permanent makeup including eyeliner, eyebrows, & Lip color. Here at Nikki's Tattoo Studio, you will find Matthews NC has a nice professional tattoo studio providing high-quality, custom tattooing, permanent makeup and Nikki Thompson specializes in scar revision, repair and cover. Nikki's Tattoo Studio was established in Charlotte NC in 1995 making it one of the area's longest-established tattoo studios and Charlotte's first woman-owned and operated tattoo studio. Nikki prides herself on customer service & giving you the best tattoo or cosmetic tattoo experience possible. Nikki's is an inclusive tattoo studio and welcomes anyone wanting a great tattoo experience. As a female business owner and tattoo artist, she maintains a professional tattoo studio atmosphere for adults. This tattoo studio specializes in custom tattoo work. Nikki takes pride in designing something special for each client. As you navigate the site, you'll find galleries with examples of her tattoo work, as well as many cosmetic tattoo processes by Nikki. Nikki's Tattoo Studio has been fortunate to host many talented artists, pierciers and front counter support over the last 27 years, including 3 individuals who apprenticed under Nikki, but in late 2023 Nikki decided focusing on her clients alone, instead of running the shop, was a better fit and is currently the only artist at the studio.

**Scar repair. Changing lives. πŸ’œ**

This is why I love what I do! Advanced microneedling can make an incredible difference in the appearance and texture of scar tissue.

For this client, we're not just repairing scars β€” we're **preparing her skin for a beautiful custom tattoo** down the road. One step at a time, turning old reminders into something she chooses. πŸ–€

**Summer bodies are made in the winter! β„οΈβ˜€οΈ**

Look at this scar transformation after just **3 sessions of advanced microneedling!** ✨

Not all microneedling is created equal. My advanced techniques go beyond basic cosmetic treatments, working to remodel scar tissue and improve texture, thickness and appearance.

Whether it's surgical scars, stretch marks or other skin imperfections, **now is the time to start your repair journey** so you're ready to show more skin next summer! πŸ’œ

πŸ’— October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to honor survivors, remember those we've lost, and recognize the strength and courage of everyone affected by this disease.

For more than 20 years, I've had the privilege of helping breast cancer survivors through different stages of their healing journeys. It has been some of the most meaningful and rewarding work of my career.

From 3D ar**la restoration and surgical scar repair to permanent makeup, eyebrow restoration, and microneedling to improve scarring and skin texture, my goal has always been about more than appearance.

Cancer treatments can change so much about how a person looks and feels. Being able to use my artistry and experience to help someone recognize themselves in the mirror again is something I will never take for granted.

To every survivor who has trusted me with a part of their journey, thank you. It has truly been an honor. πŸ’—

Scar repair can take fewer sessions than you might think. πŸ’œ

I’m especially proud of work like this β€” being able to repair the scar and replicate her natural skin with tattooing is where artistry, experience and corrective technique come together. ✨ Microneedling and paramedical tattooing recreated what was.

Scar repair can take fewer sessions than you might think. πŸ’œ

I’m especially proud of work like this β€” being able to recreate what her arm once looked like is where artistry, experience and corrective technique come together. ✨

With the right approach, even older or more noticeable scars can often be improved in just a few sessions. Every scar is different, so I create a customized repair plan based on your skin, scar and goals.
